Zidane fires
warning to Cris
The warning comes from Real legend Zinedine Zidane, who
has returned to the Bernabeu as an advisor to president Florentino
Perez.
Ronaldo is set to become the world's most expensive
player when he seals an £80million switch from Manchester United to
the Bernabeu at the end of the month.
He will be joined by £62m signing Kaka and could also
line up alongside David Villa and Franck Ribery.
But Frenchman Zidane said: "Ronaldo will have to come
to terms with being just another player at the club.
"With the arrival of Kaka and more to follow, he cannot
expect to take centre stage at a club like Real.
"Besides, while the supporters love to embrace
superstar players, collective success is far more important to them
than that of any individual."
Zidane claims Ronaldo's will have to cope with pressure
which will come with his world record transfer fee.
He added: "As is always the case when a player movers
for vast amounts of money the expectations are enormous.
"I know that from my own experience. You are burdened
with it even though you have nothing to do with a fee agreed
between two clubs."
Zidane believes Manchester United's decision to sell
Ronaldo could prove a wise one.
He said: "Yes Manchester United are losing one of the
top three players in the world, but with the money they are getting
they can actually end up having a stronger and more balanced
squad.
"If they invest the money well - which I am sure they
will - then I can see them being better than last season."
